A Logitech headset is a type of combination headphone and microphone unit designed to allow you to engage in voice communication using your computer. You can record your own voice into a variety of programs or communicate with people in real-time via instant messaging or voice conferencing utilities. If your Logitech headset is experiencing difficulties, you can fix it by verifying and adjusting its settings within Windows.
Instructions
1. Reinstall the software that came with your Logitech headset. This software is called a driver, and it is required to be installed on your computer so that Windows can recognize when the headset is attached to your computer. Place the installation CD-ROM back into your computer and click "Install" when the prompt loads on your monitor.
2. Right-click on the "Volume Control" system tray icon and select "Recording Devices." Right-click on the icon for your Logitech headset and click "Enable." If Windows had disabled your Logitech headset, no programs would have been able to use it. After enabling the device, attempt to use it again.
3. Make sure your Logitech headset is plugged into the "Microphone" and the "Headphone" jacks on your sound card. The cable of your Logitech headset has two plugs; one plug goes into the jack on the back of your computer labeled "Microphone" and the other into the jack labeled "Speaker." If one of these two plugs isn't inserted into your computer, or if they're inserted into the wrong jacks, the Logitech headset won't be able to operate properly.
